This month I dubbed Claire “the best baby ever.” She is so easy going. She really only cries when she needs something – a bottle, a nap, a diaper change. She is never short on attention. Bennett 100% thinks she is “his bébé.”
Monthly Questionnaire
Age: 3 months
Weight: 13.8 lbs
Length: 23.5″
Size: 0-3 months for most of the month but then jumped to 3-6 month
Eyes: blue
Hair: brunette
Sleeping: She typically sleeps from 7 pm until 4:30 am with a dream feed at 10:30 pm that Ingrid gives her. She sleeps in her crib with Jimmy in the bed in her room. She’ll eat at 4:30 am and then sleep until 6:30. She did sleep through the night once. She is no longer in her swaddle – she’s in the Magic Merlin Sleep Suit for naps and night. She takes almost every nap in her crib.
Eating: combo feeding from bottles. She’s about 60/40 breastmilk and formula. I’m still proud of this. She won’t nurse so it’s all bottles – pumped & formula
Milestones: She started babbling; slept through the night for the first time (11 hours straight! ((with a dream feed))
Memorable outings: not only is it flu season, but we’re still in a COVID-19 Stay Home order, so we’re going nowhere except daily neighborhood walks
Likes: eating, windows, baths, her brother, her mama
Dislikes: pacifiers, the wind, the sun,
Words/sounds: she started babbling
Nicknames: “Claire Bear,” “Sweet Thing,” “Claireaboo” “Baby Sister,” “Ginger Snap”
Interesting Facts: 50% growth cure is gone, she shot up
Funny moments: I wanted to take a cute photo of her asleep in my arms rocking her to sleep, did not realize the flash was on: needless to say, she was not happy. And yes, I rock her to sleep almost every night. Sorry, not sorry, we’ll work on sleeping later, but she’s my baby now.
Looking forward to: sleeping more; being able to leave the house
